If Mike Ashley is reading he probably doesn't realise you are the appointed mouthpiece for all of the members on this forum.
Speak for yourself thanks.

Oh come on. Absolutely pathetic 

Guessing a few:
Why say things like it's the Bank holidays, who knew? 
Why didn't he realise he'd have to do the AML finance checks (before first trying to 'send the money quickly')?
Why did he post all that stuff on Twitter, not just the Mel stuff?
Where is his money from, really?
Why has he stopped tweeting?
 
But if his money turns up first he probably gets the Club.

BAWT have already commented that AA is still in the race, Percy now contradicting BAWTs press release, This speaks volumes on others having a horse in the race

As Quantuma installed CK as the preferred bidder, without apparently doing sufficient due diligence on his finances and the likelihood of any problems due to the source of his personal wealth, are they still entitled to full payment of all of their work since naming the preferred bidder?
To me it smacks of incompetence, so surely they shouldn't be able to claim for costs associated with such incompetence should they?

Conflicting media reports.....take your pick:
Nixon/Sun:  Was going to be CK, now switched to Morgan or Appleby
Dorsett/Sky:  No one else in the running
Dawes/Radio Derby:  Ashley
No one seems to be saying Clowes but I would think that's another possibility.

Maybe the deal would have collapsed had the money not cleared today? Hence Percy’s article?

Who’s played him as a fiddle?
I know Ed isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, he’s not really mine and I’ll criticise him where it’s appropriate, but today he did the right thing and it’s fair to give him credit where it’s due. Kirchner might not like it, Nixon might not like it but they were both sat on the information as to why the takeover had hit a snag, but because it didn’t suit their versions they were keeping quiet. 
Ed went OTT with his morning message yes, and it was classic Dawes, but because he did Nixon came out giving us what he knew all of a sudden. Simon Stone was tweeting to add pressure on. White and Jordan at the very least gave it national coverage and did speak to Kirchner. Dan Roan chased Kirchner across a well kept field! By midday at least the fans could paint a picture of what was happening and get a clearer view. How many times can we say we’ve been given that over the last 18 months. It’s not about good or bad news, it’s that we had a right to know what’s going on. Look on here today, no huge dramas or too much gloom, we chatted, debated and had a bit of a laugh about what was happening because at least we had a good idea what was happening. Imagine if we’d had another day of silence whilst Kirchner played golf, the fans deserved to know what was happening. 
Ed started to pull back a little after lunch, and so did Radio Derby on their news bulletins until sportscene. There Ed said pretty much everything he knew at that point, which was a changing story and that Ashley and Appleby were now in the background. 
He did well today and it gave the fans a clearer picture. It’s only right that we give credit where it’s due.

Now confirmed not to be about DCFC. hope Bury AFC go down

She can go her own way. 

Refreshed this page all day, went out for 3 beers with a friend and I’ve come back to this… is everything ok again?!

@Davidcould you let us know, perhaps in the top story, that you have been paid something. We will then know the process is well underway 

How very generous of him to sell our stadium back to us at a reduced rate after he separated it from us in the first place and tied it to massive loans thst could have seen us lose it forever.

You’re right. They’ve flat out denied it. Shocking reporting from the Athletic ?

I think someone has put themselves in a logical position to takeover if CK ever gets bored.

So exciting, what time do we think the extension will be announced?
I'm going for 5pm.

Whoever it is… what a legend.
This saga has had me in knots. Within hours of bad news we have hope, within hours of hope we have bad news.

B4 if you get a +1 consider me mate ?? 
Buzzing this evening after feeling pretty rotten this morning, up the rams.

Byrne there too i believe

If it gets him to sign a new contract, I don’t care if went to mosh with him. And that’s saying something 

Maybe Mel is using one of his other companies to buy it from himself again.
